Turning back the hands of time to 1900 was no mean feat on “The Knick,” which premieres Thursday at 10 p.m. on Cinemax. The drama about a struggling New York City hospital was filmed in 70 days in a studio in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, and on the streets of the city.

1. I thought that looked really interesting but alas, no Cinemax.

Maybe they will give us a free week soon so I can catch it. I love period dramas.

2. I don't have cinemax but I have access to it on my ipad

and I might check it out.

I adored Clive Owne in 'Hemingway and Gellhorn', which was a great movie on HBO (He played Hemingway). So definitely want to check this one out.

3. Update : In case anyone missed it!

We do have free Cinemax this weekend and they are repeating "The Knick" tonight at 9:00 ET.
And.... more good news.....HBO is showing it at 10:00 ET! I will record it.

4. Watched the first 2 episodes last night --

Wow, I am liking it. Just when you think that you are watching just another "hospital drama", only in funny clothes, they throw in a curve ball. Can't wait to see how this develops.
